At an early-2010 Shark Fights 14 event, the Texas-based promotion gave the ladies center stage for the night’s co-main event.

The HDNet-televised event saw a fight years in the making finally come to fruition, as Tara LaRosa and Carina Damm met in the cage in a 125-pound contest.

Each week HDNet and MMAjunkie.com release a new and exclusive fight from
the ever-growing HDNet Fights video library. Stunning knockouts, slick
submissions, shocking finishes and legendary brawls are the norm for
this weekly feature.

LaRosa vs. Damm is no exception.

LaRosa (19-2 at the time) saw a 15-fight win streak come to an end with a 2010
split-decision defeat to Roxanne Modafferi. The BodogFIGHT veteran,
though, rebounded in November 2010 with a unanimous-decision victory over one-time Strikeforce title challenger Takayo Hashi. The win earned LaRosa
the DaMMAge Fight League 125-pound women’s championship.

Submission specialist Damm (15-5 at the time), a fellow BodogFIGHT
vet, was looking to snap out of a two-fight skid. After posting a 10-fight
win streak, Damm suffered a submission loss to Hitomi Akano at
Strikeforce Challengers 10 and then a TKO defeat to Cat Zingano at a
December 2010 regional event in North Dakota.

Would LaRosa get the win, or would Damm break her slide?
